Annual Subscription$191 / every year (+ S&H)

"My fiancee and I get excited every month when we get the shipping notification and usually have some friends or family over for the tasting. Can't wait for the next box."

- Nik R.

What do I get in each box?

You don't just get chocolate bars. You get the experience of tasting each delicious chocolate bar with your friends or family, making your guesses together, and then logging onto our site to find out the answers. We're not just here to provide chocolate -- we're here to help you create and cherish priceless family moments together.

You don't get worthless product samples like you get in other subscription boxes. Most subscription boxes consist of product samples that are literally worthless because samples cost $0 (but you're paying for them).

Because each chocolate bar is a mystery, each box is a friendly competition. So it's not just a box with three Mystery Chocolate bars but a fun, delicious guessing game! Think you can guess which ingredients are in each bar? Submit your guesses on our site and we'll instantly tell you how you did!

Last but not least, you get free shipping on chocolate bars purchased through our store (even in the summer!). Just use the "ship with next box" option!

When will I get my first box?

The cutoff date for new subscriptions is the 20th of every month. If you order on or before this date, you will receive your first box the following month. If you order after this date, you will receive your first box the month after that because we have to order supplies a couple weeks in advance.

If it's after the cutoff date, contact us if you have reeeeaaally want to get in on the next month -- we might be able to squeeze you in if we have enough materials :)

FAQ

Have any questions that aren't answered here? Get in touch! We'd love to hear from you.

I'm buying Mystery Chocolate Box as a gift. Can I include a gift message to the recipient?

Excellent choice! I smell "Best Gift Ever" award coming your way (and it smells good, chocolate with raspberry perhaps?). But yes, for all boxes intended as a gift, we include a nice little personalized gift card. You can include your own gift message as well as let the recipient know who it's from!

Oh, and you might be interested in our gift subscriptions. These are non-recurring, so you just pay for 3, 6, or 12 months at once with no recurring subscription afterward.

Are the bars taken out of their original packaging? Is it safe?

We take safety very seriously. In order to preserve the "mystery" aspect of our box, we remove the original outer wrapper or box, but leave the inside foil wrapper around each bar intact. The chocolate is never altered, modified, or touched in any way.

I (or someone in my family) have food allergies. Will I be able to enjoy Mystery Chocolate Box?

We include an allergy information card in each box that contains the allergy information from the label of each bar. If you have known food allergies that normally conflict with chocolate (nuts, gluten, etc), we advise to you to not purchase Mystery Chocolate Box unless you are certain that you will not have any adverse reactions.

How do you ship each box in the summer to avoid melting?

Ah, yes. This is one of the biggest challenges that we face (read more here). Basically, we line each box with insulated bubble wrap and then pack two cold packs in each box.

There is an extra charge of $2.50 for every box we ship out that needs the special materials mentioned above (this is added to the shipping charge). This is also the absolute lowest price you'll find for shipping chocolate with extra insulation materials plus cold packs! (learn why here).

However, if your chocolate does happen to arrive soft or melted, just let it cool off (stick it in the refrigerator if you need to). It might look different, but it will taste just as good!

Do I get anything for guessing correctly?

As it turns out, you sure do! You get 10 Cacao Points for every single guess you get right. And, if you're consistent, you'll earn a spot in our leaderboard for ultimate bragging rights!

Can I cancel a subscription at any time?

Of course. At any time, you can downgrade to our "Party Pooper" plan: $0 per month for zero chocolate.

If I tattoo the Mystery Chocolate Box logo on my body, can I get a free lifetime subscription?

Most likely. As long as it's not a temporary tattoo... we might even name a box in your honor. Contact us.

Because we ship the boxes during the first week of each month and have to order the correct number of bars and allow time to put the boxes together, there is a cutoff date for new orders to receive the current month's box. Here's how it works:

The cutoff date is the 20th of each month. If you order on or before the cutoff date (July 19th, for example) AND we have enough stock, you will receive your first box the same month (usually about 5 business days or so after ordering).

Otherwise, your first box will arrive the following month. (For example, if you order on July 21st, your first box will be shipped in August.)

Note for gift orders: If you buy a gift card with your order, it will be mailed immediately no matter what the cutoff date is.
